Yu Wenhua stared closely at the gate of Amitabha Tower not far away and said, "Are they trapped? Or are they in danger?"

Liuli said with some fear: "Logically speaking, those people are magicians, so they won't die in there, right?"

Qibi hurriedly patted Liuli on the head and cursed: "What are you talking about?"

Yu Wenhua looked at Liuli and Qibi on the side, and said: "What Liuli said is not impossible. Only the head of the Amitabha Tower can enter, not even the master. There may be a dangerous master of magic inside." There is no way to cope with it.”

"It seems that these unlucky guys are finished." Qibi said.

Liuli asked: "Then should we report it to the master and the masters?"

Yu Wenhua said: "Idiot, if we report them, wouldn't we also implicate ourselves? What if masters, how do we know that they are going to enter the Amitabha Pagoda?"

The three of them were thinking about it outside the Amitabha Pagoda.

In the Amitabha Tower, Qianqiu and others followed the same pattern and found three incomplete keys.

Qianqiu said: "It's getting late too, let's eat something first."

So, he took out some food from the Qiankun bag and distributed it to everyone.

Yang Xian came over and asked softly: "Brother Qian, when did you let him go?"

"Oh, these are what Heibu eats when he is greedy." Qianqiu replied softly with a smile.

"How much food is left?" Yang Xian asked again.

Qianqiu said with some embarrassment: "There isn't much left. I'm afraid that things will break, so I don't dare to put too much. I can only let everyone eat it once."

"If it's normal, I wouldn't mind starving for a few days, but I'm just afraid that if we have to go down to the tower then, we won't have the strength to do it." Yang Xian said worriedly.

Qianqiu patted Yang Xian on the shoulder and comforted him: "There is no end to the road, Lao Yang, relax."

Bie Ling only took a few rough bites, then walked over and said, "Qianqiu, keep looking."

Qianqiu stood up, looked at Huangfu Qingyu behind Bie Ling, and said, "Why don't you take a rest? We have been busy all night."

"I won't rest because I'm afraid I won't have enough time." Bieling said.

"There are still twelve hours left. Excluding the hour to get down from the tower, we still have eleven hours to find the key." Qianqiu said.

Bie Ling walked a few steps in place and said, "I'm a little uneasy. I always feel that this matter is not that simple."

"Are you saying it's too easy for us to find the key?" Qianqiu asked doubtfully.

Bie Ling shook his head and said: "I mean, I always feel that our journey up here has been too easy. Not to mention that we haven't seen the legendary high-level spirit beasts, even the fourth and fifth level spirit beasts have not seen a few. "

Qianqiu thought for a while and said: "What you said makes sense. When I came here before, I also climbed to the third floor, and the situation was indeed a little different from when we came up."

Huangfu Qingyu suddenly said: "Listen, there seems to be some sound."

After Huangfu Qingyu reminded them, everyone calmed down and listened.

"It came from below." Yang Xian said.

Qianqiu said: "I'll go take a look."

After saying that, he ran away, went down three floors, and returned to the ninety-first floor.

When Qianqiu had just reached the stairs from the 91st floor to the 92nd floor, he saw water starting to seep from the floor on the 91st floor.

"This is the ninety-first floor that towers into the clouds. Where does the water come from?" Qianqiu asked in shock, and then looked at the water that had seeped in. It seemed to be rising.

Afraid that it was still an illusion, Qianqiu hurriedly took a few more steps, stretched out his hand and found that it was real water.

"Oops! It seems I was too optimistic." Qianqiu said regretfully, and hurried back to the 93rd floor to explain the situation to everyone.

Huangfu Qingyu asked with some suspicion: "Qianqiu, could what you saw be another illusion?"

"Absolutely not!" Qianqiu said firmly, "I tried it."

Bieling said: "If the water keeps rising, won't we be drowned?"

"You may be right." Qianqiu said with a wry smile.

Bieling glared at Qianqiu and said: "Then why are you still standing there? Find the key quickly! There are no windows in this tower, you can't see out, and you can't jump down. Now we can only hope that the water will not rise again, or we can The key to the 100th floor can be found.”

After that, several people quickly started searching again.

A few hours later, Qianqiu, who was on the ninety-seventh floor, was looking for the key and asked: "Lao Yang, how is the water? What level has it reached?"

"The water has followed us to the third floor and will soon reach the fourth floor." Yang ran for a while and came back and said to everyone, "If the water keeps rising, it will almost disappear tonight." The ten-story treasure tower was completely submerged.”

"Look for it quickly! The water is getting bigger and bigger!" Bieling said.

In this way, several people found nine broken keys among the treasures full of pearls.

Everyone returned to the ninety-ninth floor.

Everyone looked at the nine keys in front of them and thought about it.

"Why are there only nine? Isn't it ten paintings or a ten-story tower?" Bie Ling asked.

Qianqiu said: "Farewell Ling, don't worry, let's take a look."

Yang Xian said: "We only have nine incomplete keys now. Not only is one part missing, but one is also missing."

"From ninety-one to ninety-nine, that's the ninth floor!" Qianqiu reminded.

"We just ran up from the 90th floor. The 90th floor is different from the 91st floor. If there are no treasure boxes, there must be no keys." Huangfu Qingyu analyzed.

Qianqiu said: "It seems that it is not so easy to break open this door."

Huangfu Qingyu said: "I will try first to see if these keys are correct."

Yang Xian said: "Maybe we have jumped into a misunderstanding. The tenth key may be on the 100th floor."

"Lao Yang, don't be stupid. The key is on the 100th floor. How do you get it? Doesn't it open the door once you get it?" Qianqiu said with a smile.

Bieling reminded: "For now, let's look for the remaining parts of the incomplete key, otherwise our search will be in vain."

At this moment, Huangfu Qingyu jumped lightly in front of everyone, took out a broken key, and then said: "I tried it, the keyhole is too deep, and the key cannot be opened."

"So where did the rest of it go?" Bieling asked. "The water is getting higher and higher now, and it will submerge here soon. We don't have time to go back and look for it."

Qianqiu looked around and saw the ten steps and said, "I know where it is! Come with me!"

The three of them followed Qianqiu's pace with confusion on their faces.

Qianqiu walked to the stairs and said, "I'm just sure that the incomplete key must be inside."

After saying that, he tapped the first step with his finger.

"Brother Qian, is it related to the art of the five elements?" Yang Xian asked.

"Why do you say this?" Qianqiu asked.

Huangfu Qingyu continued: "I think the arrangement of these ten steps is quite like the two cycles of the Five Elements. You can see that the colors of these steps are actually different. Each step seems to correspond to the Five Elements. of different colors.”

"Then the corresponding ones are gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and then start from earth and go back." Bie Zero glanced at the stairs and slowly said what he was thinking.

"No matter what, I'll try it first!" Qianqiu said, "You guys get out of the way first!"

Qianqiu operates five cultivation pools at the same time, instilling them step by step in order.

Sure enough, under the infusion of the power of cultivation, the stairs began to change, and key handles with different statuses were slowly revealed in the middle.

Bieling picked up the first key handle, then walked up the stairs, first put in the first key obtained from the ninety-first floor, and then put in the first key obtained from the stairs. When he twisted it, he only heard a "creak" sound. !" There was a sound of the mechanism being turned.

"We are really lucky. These agencies all follow our ideas!" Yang Xian said.

Huangfu Qingyu knelt down, searched for it, and said, "There is still no tenth key, not even the missing part."

"All nine keyholes are aligned. Now there is only one key left." Bie Ling turned around and said to everyone.

At this time, Yang Xian suddenly pointed to the ground and said, "Look, the water level is high again, we have to hurry up."

Several people jumped down and started rummaging around like headless flies.

As time goes by, the water level gets higher and higher.

Qianqiu and others still have no clue.

Yang Xian wiped his face and said, "If we can't find it, how can we get down there?"

Bie Ling straightened up and said, "Qianqiu and I have water-based magic, so it shouldn't be a problem if we dive for a while. But you and Huangfu will have some difficulties."

Qianqiu looked up at the stairs, then at the contract talisman, and said, "It's not an option for us to continue searching like this. Although we have to think of a way out, we have to hurry up now."

At this moment, Yang Xian suddenly raised his head and said, "Could the tenth key be the golden contract talisman?"

Bie Ling and others all looked at Xian Yang in surprise.

"Lao Yang, are you stupid? I was knocked out by the golden contract talisman just now. Even if it is the key, how can we get it?" Qianqiu asked.

Yang Xian said: "Before, the reason why Brother Qian was rejected by the golden contract talisman was because the first nine keys were not returned to their positions?"

After hearing what Yang Xian said, the other three people thought it was a credible statement.

Huangfu Qingyu said: "Shouldn't we find out if we try it?"

Qianqiu was quick on his feet and climbed the stairs in a few steps. He reached out to uncover the golden contract talisman without hesitation.

Sure enough, the golden contract talisman no longer excludes Qianqiu.

Qianqiu successfully took off the contract talisman.

"It turns out that this is the golden contract talisman." Qianqiu held the golden contract talisman in his hand and looked at it carefully.

Huangfu Qingyu said: "But there is a problem at the moment. If the contract talisman is placed in the tenth keyhole, whether it can be opened is another matter. I am afraid that the contract talisman will also be destroyed, right?"

The rare golden contract talisman will be destroyed by opening a door.

As soon as these words came out, everyone stayed where they were.
